are the TENS functions easily understood or could you call this device mostly an EMS?

Once you try each of them you will know what they feel like. The pics don't necessarily portray what they feel like, but it works great.

Really depends on if you take a direct hit. Then it will probably fail. Normally this device will handle multiple surges before failure. How many depends on severity.

Use caution. I have read a couple of places where TENS units should not be used on the neck or head. Research this so you're certain it can be used on the neck and/or head.

No it does not have a setting or switch to do that. I have had my unit for about a month now, and to my understanding is that their are 6 massage settings. Some are TENS. Some are EMS.

I know it will...I haven't had any issues using it. I was also prescribed a tens unit from my doctor...it was not as good as this unit!!!

Yes, according to my experience I have used both. They are equally effective but the wireless tens unit is so much more convenient and easy to use. You can wear it around the house or out of the house. I've worn it walking the dogs, gardening and cooking dinner. The reality for me was that I stopped using the wired tens because it was too much trouble putting it on and limited my mobility. Hope that helps.

Don't know. Probably depends on the type of electrodes you have, I have push pin with snap adapter on my big TENS Unit.

I do not know what a Globus ems machine is. These are what considered a 'piggy back' pad. Do you have a contact number for this item? Can you look online to see if they are compatible? I use mine with a TENS unit, they plug into my lead wires which plug into my unit. Sorry I wasn't more helpful Good luck. Have a MERYY CHRISTMAS!!Cindi

It helps. Not 100% for me. I am highly sensitive and wear an EMF pendent too and still feel some low level that irritates me after prolonged use.

I use it all the time, works great for me. Make sure all the connections are secured. ie: the pads, if pads are loose, you will get a jolt. Found out the hard way. Try that.

I don't know about the unit you mentioned. I have used them on the TENS 3000 and TENS 7000. The thing with these wires is that they have to be replaced pretty frequently. Sorry, I couldn't be of more or any help.

Although I'm not a Dr. using the Tens might ease up the pain but I think you really need to see a Dr. because if it is a 'pniched nerve' there's more serious things going on that the 'TENS' system might not be the system you need to use. Before using I would talk to a Dr. and if he advises using the unit then you're good to go with his advice. Hope this helps, Paul.

My wife actually used the thing. She recalls that there were at least 8 different modes that were adjusted with a "soft touch" button. The result was a varied pulse in speed and intensity. Hope that helps.

One is the FT-1000 and is more of a TENS unit. You bought an RX-8000 while we were having a promotion that was giving away an extra muscle stimulator!

Get yourself a D cell battery and install it, take bottom off and connect wire, and it's working... zero the needle, circuit check function worked fine... mine actually picked up changes in radiation around my residential electric "smart meter". Bigger and bulkier than the newer models available, but is sturdy, and seems to work perfectly. Is in slightly used condition... but well worth the money in my opinion. A nice addition to anyone's disaster preparedness kit.

Yes it is a wireless Tens unit. But now you can buy wireless units of various brands for a lot less at Walgreens, plus they are a lot smaller. This one is very bulky.

If you have the 2 separate "pin" lead plug in points on the unit itself. Mine is an older unit and has 2 separate "channels", each with 2 "pin" holes for wire leads & their own intensity "volume" levels. So I can use 2 of these butterfly pads at the same time independent of each other. So, tens unit must have at least 2 holes to receive wire leads. Mine has four. Think positive & negative leads for each butterfly pad.
